Devin Nunes, the guy from your fourth-grade class who actually wrote down the names of the people who talked when the teacher was out of the room, will step down from his post as chair of the House of Representatives’ Intelligence Committee investigation into how Russia stole the election for His Excellency Donald “Assistant Putin” Trump.

Nunes had been feeling pressure to step down because he has ostensibly been fraternizing with the very group he is supposed to be investigating, which is a law-enforcement no-no (except for Ferguson, Mo., grand juries). When Trump accused President Barack Obama of climbing the walls of Trump Tower in a Spider-Man suit to tap his phones, Nunes struggled to defend Donald Dimwit, telling reporters: “The president is a neophyte to politics. He’s been doing this a little over a year. And I think a lot of the things that he says, you guys sometimes take literally.” Nunes went on to say, “I don’t think we should attack the president for tweeting.”
